This will be a rematch between the 2 teams as Air Force took the first game this year edging out the Cougars by a field goal.

Armed Forces Bowl- Fort Worth Bowl - Event Information & History
The Armed Forces Bowl is set to close out 2008, college football style. Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, Texas on Dec. 31 is where two teams from the Pac-10 and Mountain West conferences will take the field in search of an important postseason victory.
The first Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl was in 2003 and featured a 34-31 Boise State victory over TCU.
While the Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl aims to have teams from the Big 12 and Conference USA that is not always possible. In 2003 and 2004, the Big 12 did not have enough Bowl-eligible teams to fill their allowed College Bowl Game spots, so replacement schools had to be found.
 Amon G. Carter Stadium seats 44,000 and was named for a Fort Worth publisher and philanthropist. It is a natural grass surface and was built in 1929. It is usually the home of the TCU Horned Frogs, except one day a year when it hosts the Fort Worth Bowl.
Inaugurated in 2003 under the sponsorship of PlainsCapital Bank, the Ft. Worth Bowl matches teams from Conference USA and the Big Twelve.
Experience the unmatched excitement of a college football bowl game! Nationally televised on ESPN, the Fort Worth Bowl matches top teams looking for glory in the postseason. The game is played in the 46,000-seat Amon G. Carter Stadium on the campus of Texas Christian University.
The Fort Worth Classic was held New Year’s Day 1921 between TCU and the Centre College (Kentucky) Praying Colonels. Centre won the game 63 – 7. Later Fort Worth was host to the Cattle Bowl in the 1940s, while the neighboring city of Dallas had begun hosting the Cotton Bowl. The tradition returned to Cowtown in the new century when the Plains Capital Fort Worth Bowl was born.
The first Bowl game in Fort Worth in 2003 under the sponsorship of PlainsCapital Bank, the Ft. Worth Bowl matches teams from Conference USA and the Big Twelve. In 2003, at the first Fort Worth Bowl, the Boise State Broncos took the prize against Texas Christian University (TCU). Ryan Dinwiddie, the Boise quarterback, was the MVP of the game. In 2004 the Cincinnati Bearcats won out right over the Thundering Herd of Marshall University (West Virginia), with Gino Guidugli, quarterback, taking Marshall to victory with his unstoppable arm.
Fort Worth is, by Texas reckoning, right next door to Dallas, where the Cowboys, Mavericks and Stars play and where the Cotton Bowl is held. The Plains Capital Fort Worth Bowl may be young but it is still a part of what makes college ball so unique. If you love college football, you will love the Plains Capital Fort Worth Bowl.
